Paper Abstract
Multi-layer reflective thin film filters optimized for oblique incidence angles were deposited on glass substrates using
Electron Beam evaporation technique with in situ thickness monitoring. The present study involves deposition and
optical characterization of 5 layered multi-layer structures of TiO2-Al2O3 and TiO2-SiO2 having different thicknesses for
varied wavelength ranges in the visible region. Three TiO2-SiO2 multi-layer thin film filters were deposited having peak
reflectance at 480 nm, 540 nm and 675 nm respectively corresponding to light sources in the blue, green and red
wavelength regions. Similarly, a TiO2-Al2O3 multi-layer was fabricated having peak reflectance of around 64% at
610nm. These filters were deposited at an elevated temperature of 250° C in an oxygenated reactive environment for
better adhesion, mechanical strength and proper stoichiometry. Reflectance measurements of these multi-layer filters at
oblique incidence angles reveal high reflectance of around 70 ~ 75% with a reasonably broad reflection band which can
have wide applications in beam steering, shaping and folding applications in various complex optical systems facing
constrained space and weight requirements.
